That's what modders do. I have a dozen ground vehicles that will be used in the Star Wars mod. I think this great info...

Nice job..that info will come in handy soon.

I find that more people lurk than post. Great work...look forward to working with you in the future.[;)]

<t> I would agree with those points. <br/>
<br/>
I myself am a modder from X-Wing Alliance. I'm a team member of the XWA Upgrade Team. To be honest the people around here are very nice but way behind the quality of work that is being done there. I am also a lead modder on an ambitious Starshatter ...

Sure you can but don't delete them. What you need to do is compose your music to.ogg files and replace the orignals. I did this using ACE HIGH music converter. I converted some star wars music for my mod and it is much better.

Good Luck.

Any research in the ground assault area would be appreciated.

Well from what I can see is that the function routines are there. How you set up the SKIN.def file and how to point to the different skin names just has'nt been released.

Damo? Am I right or wrong on this?

Does anybody know how the skin file structure works? I want to be able to create alternate flightgroup colors for the Star Wars craft.

Actually it is very easy. Just center the cockpit so that your pilots head would be at 0,0,0. In your ship def file add the lines---cockpit_model and cockpit_scale.

I like the models and the texuring aint bad at all. What's with all the red?[:)]

I played with 64,64,64 for the first texture and 128,128,128 for the second. I also only applied the second specular, transparency, translucency. I'll have to check your way and compare.

<t> You also should use cockpit_scale.<br/>
<br/>
I like keep my models sepeate also. One folder could look like this....<br/>
<br/>
Detail 0x<br/>
MESH01.MAG----Usually Main Hull<br/>
MESH02.MAG----Meshes that need Illumination<br/>
MESH03.MAG----Meshes that need Transparency...like cockpit ...

Yeah, but I was working with X-wing Alliance for years. I helped the community over come lots of limitations. Dogfighting could be tweaked but it will get worked out.

Anyone wishing to join the team should inquire within.

I did'nt get neither. Looks pretty good. Are those glows on the corners or just illumination. It seemed rather large to be illumination.

<r> Well some people might remember this from SSC. A small group is making a great mod with top quality work.<br/>

I like the models but those textures are just too ugly for me. It seems you have the rest figured out.

I thought that word was'nt allowed around here. If I had a de'datter as you call it I would be able to make new terrain and skins for my fighters.

Hmmm.....I wonder where one gets this de'datter from.....

I would assume that it's a greysacale map. That is what I'm using, a solid grey at 128x128x128. I think I read somewhere that it took the the R value and applied it as a height map.

<t> Well after playing around with it I think your values may be way too high. I set emissive and specular to 0.25 at 0.50 the shine seemed to appear. I also set the color box next to specular to grey and emissive to black. When doing this the entire ship was illuminated with some reflective surface ...

Well I can you send it to me?
